I'd love to be nailing down top 15 classes every year but it's not going to happen for a myriad of reasons. Maybe, just maybe, if we get our heads out of our asses on the NIL deals we might have a reasonable shot at a top 15 class every few years but I'm not holding my breath.
Lol, indeedQuote:

AJ Allen- how do we look for him.

Warned you, it's going to be fun til Feb. Just hang on. Don't get caught up in the BS and ebb and flow. Still got a shot to be around top 25. Still another surprise waiting.
Never get caught up in the overselling of things either. Sometimes you've got to simply use common sense (I know that's tough for a couple people)
The difference in being ranked 35th or 25th is a few emails from Paul and Steve to the guy above them. I look at who we are recruiting hard and are we signing them. I look at other offers. I used to look at film and talk to coaches. I don't do that much anymore. Now I look for opinons from posters I trust like IYOK but he's gone AWOL.Quote:

Any kid that plays in that league should be the absolute best player on the field and I did not see that in the two games I watched. That team from Tennessee skull dragged them I think the WR was better for them than he was. I am still surprised he is not coming here, but anyone who commits to one school for a sport then to another for a different one you know something aint right.Quote:

Doubt Wednesday goes well unless someone has some info that is contrary to the rumor mill and what normally happens on an MSU signing day.
I told y'all two weeks ago that I watched every game he played this year. Most upside on the team no doubt, but he was not the most productive player on defense.Quote:

The best senior football player in the state this year is the Hartsog kid from JDC. He would make us better in every way. He is a faster Tylan KnightQuote:

Other than the lure of the city anybody else know anything?
I know you can't cry over what you never had in the first place, but seemed that one was trending out way until yesterday.
On the Hartzog kid - seems worth taking a chance on given the news of the day, but seems the staff just is not interested in him. I know he camped at State so they must have not been impressed.
Mannn just stop it. You've been whiffing since last week on these recruits. It's a crap shoot and your just guessing right now. It makes for good entertainment but you're selling wolf tickets right now and spinning like a politician.Quote:

Commercecomet24, how you feeling about Nicholson today?
Never saw it coming**
I mean really it’s every year about 2 weeks out they try to toe everyone up just for the same stuff to happen. With that said can you imagine being so scared or inferior that you would pay a recruit to NOT go to a school. That’s insane right?
How many do we sign tomorrow?
We are 16 commits, Steve says Moss and Jordan most likely won't sign tomorrow - so that puts us at 14;
Ramsey
Sledge
Trevion
Seem to be in the boat.
Decarlos
Dinkins
Percy Lewis
Seem 50/50 or better
I'm guessing we won't sign more than 22 tomorrow, so who am I missing?
So what became of this??Quote:

I honestly prefer the portal over high school recruiting.Quote:
